Hetero, because dirt and leaves don't completely dissolve in water (even with an excess of chlorine). Sand and clays sink to the bottom, vegetation floats on the surface until it starts to decay, so there isn't the even spacing of molecules needed to meet the definition of homogeneous.

No. Water in a swimming pool would be an example of a homogeneous mixture if you think on terms of the chlorine, sunscreen (from people's bodies), water, and other chemicals that got into the pool. This is homogeneous because there are different things mixed in the pool, but they are mixed evenly so that you cannot see that there are many things in the pool with a naked eye. Heterogeneous means that you can see the various parts with your eyes. A good example of this is froot loops. You can see the red, purple, yellow, green, and blue loops and the milk all floating in the bowl. You are able to see that the mixture has many different parts in it and are not mixed entirely evenly. Hope this helped :)

This water is a homogeneous liquid; it is sufficiently pure water with some additives for disinfection etc.
